Although the war thriller movies shot in New China during the “Seventeen Years” period are not genre movies, they have relatively strong genre characteristic, which realizes the integration of thrilling atmosphere and war spectacles at the image level through the creation of natural thrill, artificial thrill and dispatch thrill. This fusion is achieved by the internal stitching of the two types of element, the desire to attack the human group and the instinct of fear. As an image that reflects the social and cultural context of a specific period, they express a high degree of recognition and expectation of the “discourse about family and country” in a romanticized way.
